Advantages: Many items not sold anywhere else in UK

Disadvantages: Return service, very slow (like all stores)

BEST BUYING TIP -Member since Costco entered the UK in 1993. If you see anything, you like or may like, buy it (provided you have the money). They have a no quibble return policy (within 3 mths) and I guarantee (happened to me many, many times, if you return to get it, on another visit, it will be gone. They are a warehouse, not retail store, (when its gone its gone) so accept this. Telephone communication, forget it, they hardly answer.
Ask when its coming in again, forget it they dont know and dont care. This is NOT the shopping experience, where you get, "yes sir, no sir, thank you madam, anything I can do for you sir" so dont expect this and if it happens, you are lucky. My FAV FOOD, Giant Fresh Made Pizza feed 12 people (make sure you measure oven, these are large). Oh and one last thing, you will get gadgets, electricals, etc here FIRST before any other outlet in UK and much cheaper. MY LAST TIP, remember your mobile and take pictures of item (with price) of anything you are interested in, then check out price on-line, you will be amazed.

MUCH BETTER SERVICE in the USA

Summary: Accept this as a warehouse, so forget M&S, Waitrose type of service
